How To register the Hyper-V VSS writer with Windows Server Backup
This is well documented, but as some folks are asking about this, lets post :
- Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
- Locate the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersion
- Right-click CurrentVersion, point to New, and then click Key.
- Type WindowsServerBackup, and then press ENTER.
- Right-click WindowsServerBackup, point to New, and then click Key.
- Type Application Support, and then press ENTER.
- Right-click Application Support, point to New, and then click Key.
- Type {66841CD4-6DED-4F4B-8F17-FD23F8DDC3DE}, and then press ENTER.
- Right-click {66841CD4-6DED-4F4B-8F17-FD23F8DDC3DE}, point to New, and then click String Value.
- Type Application Identifier, and then press ENTER.
- Right-click Application Identifier, and then click Modify.
- In the Value data box, type Hyper-V, and then click OK
This will enable back up Hyper-V virtual machines from the parent partition on a Windows Server 2008-based computer by using Windows Server Backup.
